Another Newspaper Mini-Merger
So the Miami Herald and St. Pete Times have officially combined their Tallahassee bureaus, a move that has been rumored for months.
It follows a whole lot of other strange combinations of the daily newspapers. The consolidation is a way to cut costs and, ultimately, jobs (not that any of the remaining Tallahassee journos are necessarily in any jeopardy of losing theirs).
The good news, if you can call it that, is that Miami Herald executive editor Anders Gyllenhaal told me last week that he doesn't "see" any more job losses at his newspaper. When we started talking about previous buyouts/layoffs, Gyllenhaal said that "the reporter ranks have been the least affected by this."
I asked him how many reporters total have been lost so far at the Herald.

"I think it ends up being in the neighborhood of a half dozen reporters and we have more than 100 reporter on staff," he said.
That half dozen figure didn't sound right. A look at lists compiled here showed it was a ludicrously low number. That might be the number for one round, but there's been a few. Here's a quick list of some of the reporters gone: Phil Long, Martin Merzer, Gary Fineout, Jasmine Kripilani, Oscar Corral, Lisa Arthur, Matthew Pinzur, Erika Beras, Natalie McNeal, Desonta Holder. That's ten right there and it doesn't count columnists and critics, who in my book are also reporters (or should be).
I give Gyllenhaal the benefit of the doubt. Maybe it was a misunderstanding. Maybe it was a mistake. But let's hope he's not "wrong" about the end of the layoffs. There are, after all, rumblings that another round of McClatchy job cuts are just around the corner.

London Fletcher No. 86: NFL Top 100 Players of 2013 (Video)
- Updated: May 2, 2013
The NFL annually does a 'Top Players of' list (voted on by the players) after each season as most people know. This years list is being shown on NFL Network the next couple of weeks and London Fletcher was listed at number 86.
Fletcher is the second Redskins player to be o the list so far, as Trent Williams ranked in at number 99.
The 5-10, 245 Fletcher is about to start his 16th NFL season, year number 15 was a gem by anyone's standard.
All London Fletcher did was register 141 tackles, 78 unassisted, get 5 interceptions and make 3 sacks.
Fletcher was named the Pro Bowl as a alternate last year and continued to be the captain of the Redskins defense despite having major issues with his ankle and elbow, both of which required surgery after the season.
One could make a valid argument that London Fletcher should be much higher on this list. Since the players vote on this list, I'm wondering what they were thinking when they penciled in Fletch that low.
There are sure to be more EVEN Redskins players on the list….stay tuned.

AbstractDigital Signal Corporation (DSC) will adapt its current operational Bio-LIDAR 3D face imaging system to SOCOM's application set and 100 Meter range requirements. The Bio-LIDAR is a highly evolved extension of an industrial metrology lidar that produces eye-safe precision 3D measurements at 60 meters. The Bio-LIDAR can monitor heartbeat, breathing and audio biological signals. During Phase I DSC will demonstrate a 3D Facial Imaging System that identifies uncooperative subjects against either 2D or 3D imagery databases at ranges up to 100 meters. The Phase I system will first detect faces in a scene then track, image and identify the faces of interest. DSC will fund parallel design efforts for miniaturization and ruggedization of the optics and the electronics subsystems, focusing on SOCOM requirements for size, weight, power and unit cost. The Phase I efforts will facilitate a low risk Phase II prototype development suitable for SOCOM field trials and evaluations. DSC's team includes Honeywell International and the University of Houston (UH). Honeywell brings its integrated face and iris security system experience, biometrics database and networking technologies, and manufacturing and marketing capabilities. UH brings the 3D FRS technology that is currently number 1 in the NIST 3D FRS Grand Challenge.

The Perfect Ofsted Inspection (Hardback)Jackie Beere, Ian Gilbert
Hardback Published: 29/03/2012
- In stock
Click & Collect From your local shop
Building on the phenomenal success of The Perfect Ofsted Lesson, we asked Jackie Beere to extend her remit from the classroom to the entire school. What is it that makes a 'good' school an 'outstanding' one? What are the inspectors looking for? What is it that the outstanding schools do that catches the Ofsted inspector's eye? To answer these questions, Jackie has combined her extensive experience in education with research done in schools recently awarded that 'outstanding' gold star. This book shares her findings in a practical, down-to-earth way that is as much about world-class quality in teaching and learning as it is about surviving an inspection. With it, you can be confident of revealing your school in the best possible light and, who knows, you may even enjoy the process.

Noisy, not that clean, breakfast not good, ac not working
Some of the staff were friendly and helpful. Beds were OK but room was on the small side and showing its age
Failure to deliver on services that were paid for and the lack of staff when we needed them early in the morning for an airport transfer
Location is only good point.
Wi-Fi could not be used. I could not get the receipt for a taxi to the airport, though the hotel receptionist said that I could get it from taxi driver. In addition, the level of taxi driver the hotel arranged was very poor. He take me to the different terminal.
The main areas and the welcome from the night receptionist
keep your wits around you if you happen to fancy a late or early walk in the vicinity
The cleaning ladies maintained the room cleanly everyday.
The breakfast was rather simple and untintersting.The room rate was high for foreign visitors compared with that of locals.
Not many tourists
The location is good and rooms are good for tunisian standards
I suggest they also review this hotel on ratings on discrimantion, a group of middleaged men,part of the staff of the hotel, dressed in polyester suits standing in front of the main entrance , with a lot of attitude and arogancy , refuse entrance to the hotel to any tunisian person, my longtime tunisian friends who wanted to come visit me during my stay in the africa hotel , were rudely and very impolite refused entrance and turned away , not even handing over their papers and making copies of their passports which I suggested in last resort to still make it possible for them to enter the hotel was rudly denied by an also arrogant and very unfriendly recepsionist....this is discrimination ....and unacceptable !!
Clean room, spacious and central location. Breakfast buffet was excellent.
Overpriced, Dar El Medina was the same price and much better value for money. The reception staff were not very friendly.
Location was good and staff are willing
Furniture is getting old and some aspects are lacking. For example there was not any thing to stir the coffee and sugar with
the quietness, the lake view, the help of the support staff at the hotel, the nice location and easy access to places of visit.
the choice for breakfast is limited.
staff were friendly and rich breakfast
The hotel location was far away from city centre and did not match as specified in booking.com
Only one person was polite, and that was the General Manager
The hotel is in a dreadful location. The street it's on is filthy with heaps of rubbish, car repair shops, and broken sidewalks, making it virtually impossible to walk anytime. The hotel itself is in dire need of a complete overhaul. The building is very old and it shows. Also, the staff is quite rude and lose their temper at the slightest comment. Breakfast (tea/coffee & toast) was never ready on time, and the all-male bar crowd is quite loud and rowdy all night.
The 1930s-type design and atmosphere of the hotel was great, as was the well-patronised restaurant.
Absolutely plagued by mosquitoes in our room at night, ruined two out of three nights' sleep.
The staff
the staff my room
The location is very central and ideal for business. Availability of transport is so conducive with the bus station next door and ease of taxis
The location of the dining room is a bit interfering with the other hotel activities.
Excellent location for transportation to airport and to train station while at walking distance to Tunis medina
Very noisy room (ear plug required).Cleanliness of the room was poor. Internet access was difficult to set-up and staff was unaware of WiFi procedure/limitations.
please kindly be informed that as soon we arrived to Vime Tunis hotel ,our booking in this hotel via booking .com was for 3 rooms including breakfast actually we find booking for 2 rooms not including breakfast than they provide us with the other room after showing the booking confirmation again in the morning as soon we come for breakfast they informed us that the deal they have with booking .com only for room rent not including breakfast, after that we solf the problem with the reservation manager after log desiccation witch is not fair , next time i will not use or recommend this hotel to any bady.
The hotel has nothing to do with 5stars hotels.
the service and teh room is not 5 stars
The Ambassadeurs Hotel was a good place to stay, the beds are incredible!
The buffet breakfast was horrible! , the hotel is not well situated since is to far from the medina,souk and principal avenue that is nice to walk, there was a woman in the reception that was not nice at all since I made her questions about how to get to Sidi Abu Said and she answered in a bad mood, she doesn´t like occidentals, but the other guys in the reception were nice
Very well working free wi-fi, renewed room, nice doble bed.
Juices in the breakfast don't taste so good
Room big, comfortable and clean. Food good. Staff gentle.
Not blue towels in bathrooms. Seem not to be very clean.
The room was rather big and quiet. The bathroom was clean.
The carpet in the room was extremely dirty, and the staff was not helpful. There is nothing around - if you want to go out in the evening, you'd have to take a taxi to the center (I wouldn't recommend walking in the evening, it's not a very pleasant area).
Friendly,kindly, and it was nice building,
nice staff, nice location, nice design
should have a TV and a mini-bar in a room

A variety of consumer products--from smart phones to digital theater boxes, and from car navigation systems to home security gear--have gone digital. In addition, wireless connectivity has become a cheap add-on for gadgets.
What's new:
A variety of consumer products--from smart phones to digital theater boxes, and from car navigation systems to home security gear--have gone digital.
Bottom line:
With that new technology comes exposure to a digital ill already the scourge of PC users: computer viruses.
With that new technology comes exposure to a digital ill already the scourge of PC users: computer viruses.
"Like humans in a sterile environment, an unconnected device has no chance of infection," said Dan Cregg, vice president of home-automation company Smarthome. "But once you are connected to the outside world, then you are in danger."
Experts agree that with a rapidly expanding landscape of network-ready consumer products, there will be an explosion in opportunities for virus writers. While that hasn't happened yet, it's easy to see how and why it could, said experts.
Today's viruses and "bot" software aim to infect PCs and steal information, or to draft the systems into an online army that obeys the original attacker. Tomorrow's malicious code could disable home security systems, tinker with the TV, steal digital music collections or even lead a driver astray.
"The world of tomorrow includes all sorts of devices connected to networks via wireless, and this will present us with a new set of challenges and threats targeted at relatively vulnerable devices," Ajei Gopal, senior vice president of technology at security software maker Symantec, said in a speech at the Harvard Business School last month.
Danger: Switches and sensors can't be infected but could be controlled. Central server could be an infection point, especially if connected to the Internet.
Danger: Cell phones, which increasingly resemble small computers, will be a likely target of viruses that gather identity information.
Danger: Most are based on a PC and a standard operating system, so could come under attack as more people connect their devices to the Internet.
Danger: Though cars have a myriad of processors, most cannot be programmed remotely. GPS navigation computers could be a target, but offer little of value to attackers.
Danger: From Roomba vacuums to Internet-connected refrigerators, more devices have processors and bandwidth connections, but they hold little information of appeal to intruders.
Gopal also said that security software companies are at least thinking about how to minimize the danger of such threats. "Creating better protection for the mobile environment is critical, and these are issues that must be addressed in both (networking) infrastructure and on the devices."
As yet, there has not been a full-blown attack on non-PC devices. Mobile phones, which a report last week from IBM highlighted as the next major target of viruses, have just begun to attract writers of malicious programs. Some malicious cell phone programs--particularly the Cabir and Skulls viruses--managed to trick some people into installing them, though they did not become widespread.
The IBM report predicted, however, that the cell phone viruses will spawn a number of offshoots, because the source code for Cabir has been released. It also said that malicious programmers are likely to increasingly focus on finding new ways into systems, using the relatively recent Bluetooth wireless protocol and voice over IP, for example.
An antivirus company said last month that a Lexus car dealership had found a virus infection in the GPS navigation computers in several of its luxury cars. In fact, the reported infections turned out not to exist. Some technology experts believe that virus writers aren't interested in going after less common devices yet.
"Most hackers and virus writers that are trying to use your assets will program for the common denominator," Smarthome's Cregg said. "For computers, they program for Internet Explorer, not Apple's browser. Likewise, there are not that many people on non-PC platforms to make development worth it."
David Emm, a senior technology consultant with Russian antivirus specialist Kaspersky Labs, was asked by one of his company's customers to investigate the possibility of infecting a Lexus. Though the

Bird ranges vary more than thought
July 24, 2016 01:32 PM - University of Massachusetts at Amherst via Science Daily
A new study of population trends among 46 ecologically diverse bird species in North America overturns a long-held assumption that the climate conditions occupied by a species do not change over time. Instead, birds that have increased in abundance over the last 30 years now occupy a wider range of climate conditions than they did 30 years ago, and declining species occupying a smaller range.

Soon solar will be the cheapest power everywhere
July 22, 2016 10:04 AM - Chris Goodall, The Ecologist
Solar is already the cheapest available power across large swathes of the tropics, writes Chris Goodall - its cost down 99.7% since the early 70s. Soon it will be the cheapest electricity everywhere, providing clean, secure, affordable energy for all.
Towards the end of last year, Shell CEO Ben van Beurden made a little-noticed remark. He said that solar would become the "dominant backbone" of the world's energy system.
He didn't give a date for his prediction, or indeed define what 'dominant' means, but he accepted that the sun will eventually provide the cheapest energy source across almost all of the world.
Trees' surprising role in the boreal water cycle quantified
July 21, 2016 04:55 PM - University of Alaska Fairbanks via EurekAlert!
Approximately 25 to 50 percent of a living tree is made up of water, depending on the species and time of year. The water stored in trees has previously been considered just a minor part of the water cycle, but a new study by University of Alaska Fairbanks scientists shows otherwise.
Research published this week in Nature Scientific Reports is the first to show that the uptake of snowmelt water by deciduous trees represents a large and previously overlooked aspect of the water balance in boreal watersheds. The study was led by Jessica Young-Robertson, who worked with other scientists from the National Weather Service and UAF's International Arctic Research Center and Geophysical Institute.
Scientists unlock 'green' energy from garden grass
July 21, 2016 11:52 AM - Cardiff University via EurekAlert!
Garden grass could become a source of cheap and clean renewable energy, scientists have claimed.
A team of UK researchers, including experts from Cardiff University's Cardiff Catalysis Institute, have shown that significant amounts of hydrogen can be unlocked from fescue grass with the help of sunlight and a cheap catalyst.
It is the first time that this method has been demonstrated and could potentially lead to a sustainable way of producing hydrogen, which has enormous potential in the renewable energy industry due to its high energy content and the fact that it does not release toxic or greenhouse gases when it is burnt.
Co-author of the study Professor Michael Bowker, from the Cardiff Catalysis Institute, said: "This really is a green source of energy.
Oceans may be large, overlooked source of hydrogen gas
July 21, 2016 11:33 AM - Duke University via ScienceDaily
Serpentinized rocks formed near fast-spreading tectonic plates under Earth's seafloor could be a large and previously overlooked source of free hydrogen gas, a new study finds. The finding could have far-ranging implications since scientists believe hydrogen might be the fuel source responsible for triggering life on Earth. And, if it were found in large enough quantities, hydrogen could be used as a clean-burning substitute for fossil fuels today.
The finding could have far-ranging implications since scientists believe H2 might be the fuel source responsible for triggering life on Earth. And, if it were found in large enough quantities, some experts speculate that it could be used as a clean-burning substitute for fossil fuels today because it gives off high amounts of energy when burned but emits only water, not carbon.
Recent discoveries of free hydrogen gas, which was once thought to be very rare, have been made near slow-spreading tectonic plates deep beneath Earth's continents and under the sea.
'Perfect storm' brought sea louse epidemic to BC salmon
July 20, 2016 04:52 PM - University of Toronto via ScienceDaily
High ocean temperatures and poor timing of parasite management likely led to an epidemic of sea lice in 2015 throughout salmon farms in British Columbia's Queen Charlotte Strait, a University of Toronto-led study has found.
The sea lice spread to migrating juvenile wild salmon, resulting in the highest numbers of sea lice observed on wild salmon in a decade.
In spring of 2015, a team of U of T ecologists led by postdoctoral researchers Andrew Bateman and Stephanie Peacock found that more than 70 per cent of fish the team sampled in the Strait's Broughton Archipelago had at least one sea louse: the highest prevalence of such parasites since 2005.
"It was sort of a perfect storm of environmental conditions and mismanagement of treatment," says Peacock, a postdoctoral fellow in the U of T's Department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology when the research was conducted. "A lot of people talk about how sea lice are natural, but in farms, you have these parasites in larger numbers. Juvenile wild salmon are then exposed as they migrate past these areas."
Birds on top of the world, with nowhere to go
July 20, 2016 10:57 AM - University of Queensland via EurekAlert!
Climate change could make much of the Arctic unsuitable for millions of migratory birds that travel north to breed each year, according to a new international study published today inGlobal Change Biology.
The University of Queensland School of Biological Sciences' researcher Hannah Wauchope said that suitable breeding conditions for Arctic shorebirds could collapse by 2070.
"This means that countries throughout the world will have fewer migratory birds reaching their shores," Ms Wauchope said.
Arctic breeding shorebirds undertake some of the longest known migratory journeys in the animal kingdom, with many travelling more than 20,000 kilometres per year to escape the northern winter.
The bar-tailed godwit flies from Alaska to New Zealand in a single flight of 12,000 kilometres without landing.
The study predicts that, in a warming world, migratory birds will become increasingly restricted to small islands in the Arctic Ocean as they retreat north.
Quantifying Tree Loss in Sierra National Forest
July 20, 2016 10:37 AM - NASA Earth Observatory
Mass tree die-offs are sparking worries of fire in California's Sierra Nevada range. An outbreak of bark beetles, along with persistent drought in the state, have caused many evergreen trees to wither and die.
The damage spread rapidly through the mountains in the fall of 2015 after favorable spring conditions (warm and dry) led to a surge in beetle populations, according to Zach Tane, a remote sensing analyst with the U.S. Forest Service (USFS). The beetles burrow under a tree's bark and lay their eggs. Once they penetrate the tree's armor (the bark), they begin to gnaw into its living tissue, the phloem.
"Needles don't turn red the next day. It's a slow process of the tree dying, and it has to do with life cycle of bark beetle and how long needles can persist in a green state," said Tane. "As the population of beetles grows, they can overwhelm the natural defenses of a tree. There's a tipping point—that's what happened in Colorado and probably what's happening here."
NASA science flights target melting Arctic Sea ice
July 19, 2016 05:22 PM - NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center via ScienceDaily
This summer, with sea ice across the Arctic Ocean shrinking to below-average levels, a NASA airborne survey of polar ice just completed its first flights. Its target: aquamarine pools of melt water on the ice surface that may be accelerating the overall sea ice retreat.
NASA's Operation IceBridge completed the first research flight of its new 2016 Arctic summer campaign on July 13. The science flights, which continue through July 25, are collecting data on sea ice in a year following a record-warm winter in the Arctic.
The summer flights will map the extent, frequency and depth of melt ponds, the pools of melt water that form on sea ice during spring and summer. Recent studies have found that the formation of melt ponds early in the summer is a good predictor of the sea ice yearly minimum extent in September: if there are more ponds on the ice earlier in the melt season, they reduce the ability of sea ice to reflect solar radiation, which leads to more melt.
2016 climate trends continue to break records
July 19, 2016 04:44 PM - NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center via ScienceDaily
Two key climate change indicators -- global surface temperatures and Arctic sea ice extent -- have broken numerous records through the first half of 2016, according to NASA analyses of ground-based observations and satellite data.
Each of the first six months of 2016 set a record as the warmest respective month globally in the modern temperature record, which dates to 1880, according to scientists at NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) in New York. The six-month period from January to June was also the planet's warmest half-year on record, with an average temperature 1.3 degrees Celsius (2.4 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than the late nineteenth century.
Five of the first six months of 2016 also set records for the smallest respective monthly Arctic sea ice extent since consistent satellite records began in 1979, according to analyses developed by scientists at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, in Greenbelt, Maryland. The one exception, March, recorded the second smallest extent for that month.

The photographer took full advantage of nature's fury and took the most badass wedding photos ever taken. The Canadian Prairies have seen several tornadoes over the past couple of days, most of which occurred over unpopulated areas and produced minimal damage. Luckily for the couple, the tornado seen in the pictures was a safe distance away and the thunderstorms did little more than blow over a tent at the reception, according to CTV. The photographer, Colleen Niska, posted the pictures to her Facebook page with the caption "I've dreamed about a day like this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Could NOT wait to post these! Pretty sure this will only happen once in my lifetime!" Advertisement This isn't the first time a tornado photobombed a newlywed couple's shoot. A tornado touched down against the sunset at the wedding of a couple in Kansas back in 2012, giving them a pretty awesome backdrop as well.

The charm itself was surprisingly big. It's about 1.5 inches in height and .75 inches in diameter. If you think that's going to bother you while you're on the phone then I wouldn't recommend it, but I don't seem to be having any trouble with it and I'm a phone charm novice. This charm is made of hard plastic, and it's very easy to install (i.e., you don't have to do anything to get it to work). Additionally, it has a very bright light, so be sure to hide it well if you're in a no-cellphone area.
Overall, I am pleased with this purchase. For the price you can't go wrong, and it shows off your Doctor Who fandom in style.
Ira Carmel
Revision: I ordered a tardis phone charm recently made my the same company and it worked instantly. This one has never worked and its a shame but I still love it. I"m debating on ordering another one to see if the first one I ordered was just faulty.

My daughter I made this and it didn't seem to cook very well. It stayed sticky even after almost doubling the cook time. I added a little more flour and tried again and it was a little better but still sticky. The taste is fine, they just don't seem to cook as well as some of the others we've tried. If you have a suggestion to fix I would love to have it. We have cooked several of your recipes and they were great! Thanks!

This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

Warm Regards,

The trolley will be a nice feature for renters in Bethany. There are also several communities that have their own transpotation to and from the beaches.
The closer you get to the waves, the higher the prices become due to the location. But also the higher your rental income can go.
You are right in taking advantage of this market. There are great opportunites to purchase at fantastic prices right now. I also predict that we will see more people coming to our beach areas for the summer than traveling by plane. Money and security will play a big role in this. This will be good for those with rental properties.
Feel free to contact me if you would like more detail on the MD or the DE beach market. I look forward to helping in any way that I can.
Good luck.

Rationalité individuelle ou rationalité stratégique : le cas de l'offre familiale de travail
[fre] Cet article analyse le statut des conditions de Slutsky dans le test de la rationalité des décisions d'offre de travail d'un ménage à deux membres. Il y est montré que ces conditions peuvent être satisfaites dans un modèle stratégique, fondamentalement différent de la maximisation d'une utilité collective, et que, inversement, elles ne sont pas toujours satisfaites, empiriquement, sous cette dernière hypothèse qui peut, dans ces conditions, être à considérer comme un postulat. [eng] Individual or strategic rationality : The case of family labor supply François Bourguignon This paper explores the status of Slutsky conditions for testing the rationality of labor-supply decision-making in a two-members household. It is shown that those conditions may hold in a game-theoretic model, fundamentally distinct from the collective utility maximization assumption, and that, conversely, they may not be empirically satisfied under the latter assumption, which might thus be considered as a postulate.

Dr. Oz's Latest Wrinkle Fighter You Can Find at a Health Food Store
Do you wish that you could find an all-natural anti-wrinkle cream that you can trust that is both affordable and safe for the skin and has proven wrinkle fighting abilities? Would you like to look 7 years younger in 7 weeks? According to a recent episode of The Dr. Oz Show, his latest wrinkle fighter is as close as your local health food store and is his preference over using coconut oil for treating dry skin.
"It prevents wrinkles and it treats eczema. It helps restore lost elasticity of the skin―especially when it's gone dry. It helps with those very fine lines by softening them," says Dr. Oz as he introduces to viewers his latest wrinkle fighting solution recommendation that is available in health food stores everywhere—rose hip seed oil.
Rose hip seed oil is extracted from the seeds of the rose bushes Rosa moschata and Rosa rubinbinosa that grow wild in the southern Andes. The medicinal use of rose hips has a long history that traces back to the ancient Egyptians and the Mayans that today is used for hydrating the skin, lightening dark spots (photo-aging), soothing itchiness (even in severe cases of eczema) and reducing the scars and fine lines that are the foundation of wrinkling. Some sources recommend it over the use of Botox for fighting wrinkles.
One of the essential ingredients of rose hip seed oil is provitamin A—a precursor molecule of vitamin A that has many of the biological benefits found in beta-carotenes such as those in fish oils, egg yolk, milk products, and leafy vegetables. Extraction of the rose hip seed oil is done by either a cold press process or by slow boiling method of which the cold press process is believed to result in a more beneficial formulation.

"This fascinating book combines a deep knowledge of biology with a love of American history to tell a story that grips like a thriller. Lee Alan Dugatkin introduces you to Thomas Jefferson and the giant moose, an animal so great and imposing that never again could the belittling naturalists of Europe assume that American natural life was inferior. Sparkling on the surface, profound beneath the waters, this is a book that will be happy reading for people of all interests and ages." -- Michael Ruse, author of Darwinism and Its Discontents
About the Author
Lee Alan Dugatkin is professor of biology at the University of Louisville and author of The Altruism Equation: Seven Scientists Search for the Origins of Goodness and Cheating Monkeys and Citizen Bees: The Nature of Cooperation in Animals and Humans, among other books.

The founding of America presented the Old World with challenges ranging from the economic, political, and military to the ideological and even the scientific. Among European men of learning, a theory arose that America was a degenerate land - damp, coolish, and capable of producing only weak, undersized, insipid life forms lacking in vigor or fertility. Even Native Americans, so the notion had it, were barely fecund, with withered genitalia and little passion or love for one another. Like so much of what was then considered scientific knowledge, the theory of degeneracy was the product of speculation and unwarranted extrapolations from wild tales comparable to today's stories of alien abductions and the like. One champion of degeneracy, e.g., claimed Native Americans shaped their children's heads into squares and cones, and that Louisiana was the home of frogs that weighed 37 pounds and sounded more like calves than frogs. Thus, for centuries, people believed such notions as that the Earth was the center of the universe, even though there was no accurate evidence to support them. Religions were erected on authoritarian teachings and it became a matter of faith and dogma to believe things about the natural world that no reliable empirical data supported.Read more ›
Buffon was one of Europe's most distinguished minds and in addition to substantial work in mathematics and cosmology, had composed one of the triumphs of science up to that time entitled Natural History: General and Particular (Histoire Naturelle). This magnum opus, published in 36 volumes, sought to document, down the smallest detail "the exact description and the true story of each thing". By all accounts, it was a great success and extremely influential. Ordinarily, Jefferson - given his own interest and activity in many scientific disciplines - would have hailed such an achievement. But this was not to be, because sprinkled throughout the twelve volumes on quadrupeds were four small treatises outlining Buffon's theory of American degeneracy.
In essence, Buffon argued that America's "cold...wet" climate and its "melancholy regions" caused its animals to become vile and weak - to degenerate. Accordingly, when comparing species occurring on both sides of the Atlantic, Buffon reasoned that American species would be demonstrably inferior, in all regards, to their European counterparts.Read more ›
The problem began with the curator of France's Royal Botanical Gardens, Georges-Louis Leclerc Buffon. Buffon was an important figure, the greatest naturalist of his time. He published _Histoire Naturelle_ in thirty-six volumes 1749 - 1788, an enormous work, which included his Theory of Degeneracy. Buffon gave examples: where is the American equivalent, he insisted, of the lion or the elephant? Not only did Buffon disparage the animals of the New World, he gave reasons for why they should be so inferior. It was the horrid, wet, cold climate. And not only that but the American Indian was "a kind of weak automaton" and (the unkindest cut) his "organs of generation are small and feeble.Read more ›
